A truly horrible event. They still use this as on training videos about how quickly fire spreads and a lack of organisation cost lives....... What a horrific way to die


RIP to the 56

It is a crying shame that this sad event is overlooked as it's not linked to Liverpool.

There was an interview with a Bradford Fan on 5 Live - He lost his Father and Brother in the fire....It was heart breaking to hear him speak and tell the story..he escaped by a minute or so...He thought they had gotten out and were outside, it was only when he got outside that he realised they were still inside by then the fire had taken hold and he couldn't get to them. Truly, Truly Heart Rending. :cry: RIP.
